![]() FIA (was PHOENIX)
Dec 2013: Just as Fia was getting acquainted with her new family she collapsed on a walk and was diagnosed with a bleeding mass on her spleen. Her age and otherwise good health made her a good candidate for surgery and she underwent an emergency splenectomy at a Salt Lake clinic. She came through the surgery well and became best buddy to her vizsla brother, Bridger. Much thanks to the Vizsla Rescue Fund for their help in funding emergency surgery in a timely manner.
Feb 2016: We are sad to report Fia lost her V brother Bridger to cancer last summer. She now has a much smaller playmate in Zoey the King Charles Spaniel but they get along well except for Fia playing a little too rowdy for the little one. Fia's original mass did come back as malignant but Susan chose to treat her conservatively with diet and supplements and she is truly a success story at 2 years post op and nothing more than a few older dog lumps and bumps.
2019: Please visit Fia at The Bridge.
